Cooking Crisis in Gaza: When Safety Disappears from Food Preparation

The crisis goes beyond the availability of food to include the lack of safe means to cook it.

In Gaza, challenges are no longer limited to the availability of food; they have expanded to include the ability to cook it safely.

Thousands of families are forced to rely on unsafe alternative cooking methods, such as burning waste or using materials not intended for household use, due to the severe shortage of cooking gas and the growing difficulty in accessing it. This reality has a direct impact on people’s health and further increases the surrounding environmental and humanitarian risks.

Access to a safe cooking method is not a luxury; it is a fundamental right and an essential part of human dignity and decent living conditions.
